During the High Holidays, hikers will be allowed limited access to some of the IDF's training areas in southern Israel. However, the IDF is asking the public not to enter prohibited areas, as this endangers the safety of hikers. Entry to permitted areas will be possible with three days' advance coordination. The IDF also stated that hikers who encounter unexploded ordnance, ammunition or a suspicious object are asked to move away from it and immediately report to the Southern Command at the following numbers: 08-9902926/8 / 0529010563 (SMS only). To coordinate, call the same number.
